Abstract:
During Franklin's 1954 visit to the United States, she learned that several American researchers had begun x-ray diffraction studies of TMV. Concerned that her team's leadership in this area might soon be challenged, she wrote to Bernal, who was traveling in China at the time, and asked permission to submit her latest results to Nature without waiting for his usual review of the article.
